Anyone who loves buying 7” singles from unknown punk bands will be very familiar with the sound of The Glorious MoonRockets. Hailing from Ottawa, the band is heavily influenced by classic garage rock and psychedelics. They have a crunchy, punk-tinged sound that lends towards short, powerful tracks. Channelling the power and raw fury of garage bands with the feedback of '90s grunge, the band has a druggy but driving sound. The album is just five tracks long (well, four, given the opening track is just thirty seconds of feedback) - long enough to show off the bands excellent showmanship, but short enough to leave the listener wanting more. However, on the last track “Halls and Stairs,” the band slows things down and sound like an out-take from a classic Mudhoney album. This is a great first start for the band and should lead to much bigger things for them.
